Gigabyte
Nitcentral's Bulletin Brash Reflections: ReBoot: Season Two: Gigabyte
Megabyte is now infected by the strange creature that created "Nullzilla." He attacks Hexadecimal, and to everyone's horror, the two viruses join and become one hideously strong virus--Gigabyte. Bob and Dot call on the mercenary Mouse for help and together the three of them try and stop the unstoppable Gigabyte.

Lots of references:
First A-Bomb Test--Gigabyte says "I am become Gigabyte, the Destroyer of Mainframe." This is reference to the line from the Bhagvad Gita, which Robert Openhiemer reportedly remembered after seeing the blast ("I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds").
Nightmare on Elm Street--Gigabyte scrapes his claws on the wall, just as Freddy did in this film.
Raiders of the Lost Ark--Gig drains a sprite that is dressed just like Indy Jones.

This episode serves mainly to reintroduce Mouse and Ship to Mainfraime. She stays for the duration of the series.

It's interesting how this episode figures in season 4, bringing back Gigabyte and Glitch's splitter function.
